Snapchat Is Providing a Clearer Picture of How Its Data Is Collected and Used

The messaging app updated its Privacy Center

Between Facebook’s litany of privacy issues and the General Data Protection Regulation taking effect in the European Union May 25, privacy is a hot-button topic in the social sector, and Snapchat is no exception.

In a blog post published Tuesday, Snapchat alerted users to its updated Privacy Center and shared more details on its related policies.

Key points emphasized by Snapchat included:

  • Data is not collected regarding users’ ethnicity, sexuality or political allegiances, and personally identifiable information is not shared with advertisers or other third parties.
